I plan on swapping out my "toilet bowl" emblems with the '99+ flying M emblems - I think they look a zillion times better.

Now I'm more hesitant to do the '99+ RX-7 and Mazda emblems on the back. Someone who doesn't know abou the full '99 "look" would just think some body shop stuck the emblems on in the wrong place. That, BTW, bugs the HELL out of me when I see an FD with the emblems on crooked, in the wrong spot, etc.

yeah... crooked/misplaced emblems (as silly and superficial as that is) is one of the things that really bothers me . as far as the 99 ones are concerned, the "RX7" is bigger which i like ... its really small and hidden under the "mazda" on the 93 one, and is often "overlooked" by the porches/ferraries/other "fun cars" that i get in front of . alot of time i feel like very few people out there actually know what an rx7 is or what it can do... but the guys that ARE in the know always seem to want to race for some reason .

dale, have you found a source for the 99 badges? (i got my bird emblems from corksport awhile back... but they didnt list the 99 "mazda" and "rx7" badges. maybe ill see if they can get some? anyone interested in a group buy or something? or if anyone has a source please let me know. -heath
